Mounting Tape Drive from different partition

Dear all,

I have a AIX server with logical 3 partitions and the server is connecting a tape drive. the first partition can successfully making a system backup to the tape but how can i fail to mount the tape to second and thrid partition. would anyone can help me to deal with it? what command should i need to use?

thanks

You'll have to assign the tape drive via HMC to the other partitions.

thank you.
i use "rmdev" to remove the tape in 1st partition then , change the adapter to 2nd partition in HMC. finally use "cfgmgr" to detect the tape in 2nd partition.

Sounds good.
